Auckland/IBNS: The video of New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon playing with colours has resurfaced on social media as the festival of Holi is being celebrated in India on Friday.

The video, which dates back to February, is seen celebrating Holi in front of a large gathering at ISKCON Auckland. The crowd in the video also hollered "Modi, "Modi" in support of the Indian Prime Minister. 

Luxon had also shared some of the pictures in February.

He wrote on X, "Happy Krishna Holi!"

Meanwhile, Luxon will be on a tour to India from March 16 to March 20 to strengthen his country's bilateral relationship with India.

The New Zealand PM wrote on X, "Next week, I’ll be travelling to India with a senior business delegation. Strengthening New Zealand’s relationship with India is a key priority for my Government.

"India is the fifth largest economy in the world and I am focused on increasing trade and business opportunities between our two countries and promoting New Zealand as an investment destination. Trade is a key part of our plan to grow the economy to reduce the cost of living and create more jobs and higher incomes for all New Zealanders."

Luxon claimed he was a big fan of India which he admires and loves hugely.
